U: Gabrielle UNION

Happy Monday. It's the 21st day of my A to Z Challenge and what a journey! For those of you who haven't been following, I chose to focus on child abuse and sexual assault in hopes of raising awareness for my readers. After the positive feedback I received on my Quotes post, I want to start the final week off with a couple quotes from Gabrielle UNION, best known for her work in Bring It On and Being Mary Jane, who was raped at gun-point when she was 19.

As a victim/survivor of violence I can tell u tht it can easily happen 2 any1. I was at work when I was raped. Ppl still asked what i had on

How sad they asked her what she had on, like that would have made a difference. I didn't know this about her; glad she decided to speak out and give the quotes she did and let others know of her abuse.

I didn't know she was a survivor. How wonderful that she has chosen to speak out about it. It's so crazy that people are still blaming the victims...what clothes she was wearing? Seriously! No one deserves to be raped. No one.~KatieTheCyborgMom
